    I knew she would still love me. She knew about my sexuality from day one and is super sweet, really smart and very accepting. So I told her via text tonight that I'm trans* and she was like "so?" She also immediately understood that meant that I'm actually straight - did I mention that she's the smartest person I know??? So, then she tells me that she still loves me and that we'll talk about it later so she can better understand (but it was her bed time bc early work).

    I love my friend so much and telling her felt awesome. I also emailed another friend and told him. Going to tell one more friend tomorrow. Then, my parents... Then basically everyone. My mother is the only major concern.

    But I love my friend! <3 <3 <3

    It takes mental strength to come out.
